One of the posts on this link suggests that the records are at the National Archive::
http://boards.ancestry.co.uk/topics.orphans.uk.england/24.1.1.1.1.1/mb.ashx

Try here:

This site give pictures and history:

and suggests records are at:
London Metropolitan Archives, 40 Northampton Road, London EC1R OHB.
apparently records include Lists of paupers (1879-1930); Lists of pauper children (1919-30)

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.
